Hotels Near Sungai Berkelah in Kuantan

We had 3 rooms and all of them had stained sheets. I had to change rooms 3 times before getting one with proper working air conditioning. The bathroom is tiny and weirdly configured (imagine: the toilet bowl brushes against your legs when standing at the sink, shower door must be open when sitting on the toilet). The furniture is cheap and broken. Limited parking shared between this hotel and Seasons View so it's always full. Parking in front of the shop lots will require hourly coupons imposed by the council. The chime of the lift is so loud you can hear it from the room. For light sleepers like me, it is especially disturbing. The roller blinds is narrow with segmented design so there is light seepage from the sides and through if you don't align it properly. Only good thing was the front desk guy who checked us in. Very helpful and resolved the non-AC issue by letting us check out the 3 adjacent rooms (2 of which also blew hot air). Unfortunately, he was replaced by a night watchman who's kind but clueless manning the counter after 11pm. We asked about parking when we came back after dinner and he couldn't offer much help. Plenty of other options around.

The price of the room was reasonable given that it was during a Malaysian festive season as well as a long weekend break. Our room (suite) comes with a smaller room with an attached bathroom which is convenient for the four of us. Both rooms are equipped with standard amenities which is a plus point. The location of the hotel was tucked behind the main road so there was minimal noise level from the streets. The check-in and check-out process was hassle-free. In a nutshell, this hotel is well priced for a short stay in Kuantan.

I was assigned a room at 4th floor. Since its at lower level of its 15 storey, I requested a room facing not facing the noisy main street. Good choice: view of a football filed, a mosque and part of the city. The room: The Hotel management probably believe that 1980s heyday decor is a selling point. Save for the flat screen telly, the rest still preserves its 80s setting: louvred wardrobe, bedside cabinet central console with rocker switches, blanket on top of sheets (not quilt), tiled (not marbled) bathroom floor, queen (not king) bed. They try to keep the cleanliness but the permanent stains on chairs, moulds around aircond vent, peeling furniture paint, mildew on bathroom wall are beyond the housekeeping department’s routine; the whole place needs serious makeover.

Room spacious, clean and comfortable. Pillows were fluffy, bed warm and soft. Breakfast spread had a lot of variety and sumptuous. Location excellent, just opposite East Coast Mall, and behind the hotel was a night food court with plenty of choices. Basement parking was easy and ample. Overall, a very satisfactory stay.

I had a wonderful stay at the Swiss Bell Hotel. My sea view room provided spectacular sunrise views, and the staff were incredibly friendly and welcoming. Breakfast was a highlight, with a wide variety of delicious foods and drinks. Overall, the stunning views, warm hospitality, and excellent breakfast made my stay unforgettable. However it would be much better if the cleanliness of the room could be upgraded. Highly recommended for a relaxing seaside retreat.

The best place to stay in kuantan. They have 2 big swimming pools. Breakfast menu was really great. Will come back for longer stay. Beach fronting. Nice view

Had a great overall experience. The service provided by the staff was excellent; they were attentive, friendly, and responsive to our needs throughout our stay. The check-in and check-out processes were smooth, with a helpful video shared by the operator that made everything straightforward for those who can follow instructions well. However, it might be challenging for those who prefer not to read detailed instructions. One of the major highlights was the hotel's location, which is conveniently close to various attraction spots. My unit had a beautiful view facing the sunrise area, adding a special touch to the stay, although I regretfully missed the opportunity to catch the sunrise moment. The unit itself was clean and well-maintained, providing a comfortable environment. However, the small room, which I believe was a storeroom, was only equipped with a fan and became quite hot, making it uncomfortable for anyone to sleep in unless the door was left open. In summary, my stay was enjoyable thanks to the excellent service, prime location, and cleanliness of the unit. With some improvements to the small room's ventilation, the hotel could offer an even better experience for its guests.

We stayed room 8412. Very clean and cozy. It also has very nice sea view. Hotel each is beautiful. Food is good. But there was no in-room slippers and hair dryer. It will be helpful if next time when we go there they will prepare those amenities.
